Chapter 173 It's Broken, I'm Lucky!(1/2)
"Brother, for this trip, you will call me Zhou Shengzhi...my name is Zhou Yafu, and I am the son of Jianghou. Do you remember?"
Liu Ying asked curiously: "Why not continue to use the name of Jiancheng Hou family?"
"It can't be used anymore. I haven't seen Lu Lu for half a month. Lu Chan was beaten by Marquis Jiancheng, and was dragged to the Jiaofang Palace by his mother for a beating...Brother, you should be a human being in moderation."
"good!"
Liu Ying went out with Liu Chang again. Since that time, the brothers often went out under false names. This has become a habit of the two brothers. Sometimes they wander around Chang'an, and sometimes they go to Luodi.
In many places, Liu Chang also had a lot of bragging rights. Anyway, he traveled to various countries as soon as he opened his mouth and spoke eloquently.
They came to a countryside again, which was no longer as deserted as before. People came in and out from time to time, and it was lively. When they saw the noble person coming, Li Zheng and another clerk hurriedly came out to greet him. Liu Ying did not say anything.
He just followed Liu Chang's instructions and raised his head, looking arrogant.
Liu Chang asked proudly: "Are you the leader of this place?"
"We are the children of Jianghou's family. My name is Yafu, and this is my brother Shengzhi... We will stay here tonight!"
"We have heard about Jianghou's reputation for a long time. It is our honor for Young Lord to stay here!"
Li Zheng smiled and led the two people inside. Liu Ying looked around and suddenly asked: "Why haven't you sown seeds here yet?"
"Well, back to you, Sir, it's only been a few days. The climate and soil quality here are different from other places, so it will be later..."
Liu Ying still wanted to question, but Liu Chang pulled him and told him to stop talking.
When the two entered the post, Liu Chang asked: "Is there any beauty here?"
Li Zheng was taken aback and said hurriedly: "The Emperor has issued an order to strictly prohibit all places... Hey, Young Lord, Chang'an is different from the past. It can't be like this anymore."
Liu Chang said displeasedly: "If I don't tell you, and you don't tell me either, who else can know?"
Li Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Young Lord may not know that there is a group of people wearing embroidered clothes, holding staffs and tiger charms, patrolling around, and they can act on behalf of the emperor when they find illegal issues. They directly obey your majesty's orders and are as cold as ice.
If you are merciless, no one can control you. Last month, thirteen officials, big and small, were killed on the spot near us..."
Liu Chang said angrily: "What kind of messenger of embroidered clothes, if I meet him, I will beat him one by one!"
Li Zheng's expression changed drastically and he said hurriedly: "You can't say that..."
Probably because he was afraid that Jianghou's son would say something scary, he left in a hurry after ordering the food. The prison gate followed him and said thoughtfully: "Li Zheng, I just
After watching those two people look at each other for a long time, it felt a little strange."
"Ah? What's weird? Is it an imposter? But the biography they just took out is indeed from Jianghou Mansion?"
The prison guard shook his head, "I seem to have seen them before... they look familiar."
After a while, the inner prison gate turned pale with shock and said, "I remembered! They are not the sons of Jianghou!"
He hurriedly pulled Li Zheng aside and said, "We can't make them angry, we must entertain them well!"
Li Zheng was a little surprised and asked: "Who are those two people?"
"They claim to be the sons of Jianghou, but they can't hide it from me. They are not Zhou Shengzhi and Zhou Yafu! They are actually Lu Chan and Lu Lu! They are the sons of Jianchenghou!"
Li Zheng was shocked and asked: "Are they the Lu brothers who do all kinds of evil?"
"It's them. I heard that they are the most cruel. Some local officials reported to Jiancheng Hou to discipline his sons. They must be afraid of being accused, so they pretended to be the twins of the Zhou family. These two are the most cruel, but they can't be offended.
....”
"Hmph, as expected, they are here for women again... I will definitely play the show after they leave!"
Liu Ying looked at Liu Chang at this moment and said with a smile: "It seems that the embroidered clothes messenger is quite fruitful."
"Of course, my strategy is good, right? This thing existed two years ago in the Tang State, but the name in the Tang State is different. We call it the Brocade Envoy... I told you to come, but you just didn't listen.
, do you understand now?”
Liu Ying nodded and asked again: "Eldest brother, what other policies does your Tang State have?"
"Haha, brother, not all policies of the Tang State can be applied to the Han Dynasty. The Tang State has its own national conditions here, and it must always be prepared to fight with the Huns. Although there is no big war now, the Huns still plunder Shangjun from time to time.
Of course, the Tang Dynasty also relied on courtesy...the temples did not have such worries at all. Cao Cao's thieves were not so good, but their policies were very good."
"Sigh... when will this big man become rich?"
"Brother, stop talking nonsense...if my father sees the big man now, he will die of joy."
"In the last year alone, the grain output was four times that of my father's time... You have to eat one bite at a time. This is already very good. The national treasury has savings. Didn't you see that Wang Ling's mouth was crooked in smile?
"
Liu Ying smiled and said: "The Prime Minister is really devoted to the country."
"This is the truth, but he is a bit too upright. Any ministers in the court who questioned you were dismissed by him... Well, just on this point alone, he is far behind Cao Cao, but he is also loyal.
He is indeed loyal...My mother was so angry with him, hahaha."
Liu Chang smiled and whispered: "The day before yesterday, Wang Ling came to Jiaofang Hall and said that when the emperor came to see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother should come out of the palace to wait... I was so frightened that my mother almost
If you want to invite him to drink, you should endure it for the sake of his loyalty to you... Hahaha, I have never seen anyone like him, even Xuanyi is not as good as him! Xuanyi doesn't even dare to mess with his mother.
!”
Liu Ying smiled bitterly. Wang Ling was even more reckless than Liu Chang. He was the most iron-headed boy in the Han Dynasty. He didn’t think about the consequences of anything he did. He only served as prime minister for a few months. The memorial to impeach him almost killed Liu Ying.
It was flooded.
"I think it's better to transfer him to Guan Hou and make him a Taiwei... His style is suitable for running an army, but running a temple is a bit too tough."
The two chatted and fell asleep late at night.
The next day, the two left here and walked towards the farmland not far away.
Liu Ying frowned, "Why are the people here starting to sow seeds now? Why is it so late??"
"Don't ask the officials. None of them tell the truth. Just ask the people!"
Liu Chang pulled his brother towards the farmland. As soon as he arrived, a dog rushed out from the side. The dog kept barking at them, "Stop barking! Where is your master?"
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"
Liu Chang was upset by being called, and cursed: "Silly dog!" He stepped forward and slapped the dog. The dog whimpered and turned away.
Soon, two farmers hurriedly walked out from a few trees. When they saw Liu Chang and Liu Ying, they were also scared and hurriedly leaned over to salute. Liu Chang helped them up with a smile and said
: "Old man, may I ask for some water?"
Several people drank water and sat under the shade of the trees. The older man sat with them, while the other younger man began to pull the plow.
"Old man...why is it so late to sow seeds here?"
"Oh, there are no cattle...and no seeds...They said they are going to open up land. There is a shortage of cattle and seeds everywhere..."
Liu Ying talked seriously with the old man, but Liu Chang watched the young man struggling to pull the plow. Because there were no plowing oxen, he could only use his bare hands... Fortunately, this plow was not made of iron, and could still be used.
It can be pulled, but it is a big wooden thing, which is very laborious. After all, humans are not cows.
Liu Ying was chatting with the old man when she saw Chang Liu rolling up his sleeves and tying up his lower skirt.
"Chang...Yafu...what are you going to do?"
"Help! Come here too! Why are you still sitting there!"
Liu Ying looked up and saw that the young man was pulling the plow desperately. The plow seemed to be stuck by something and was motionless. Liu Chang jumped into the plowed field and walked all the way to the young man's side. Liu Ying also got up and rolled up her clothes.
The old man was shocked and said: "I dare not let the noble man do this!"
"Hey, what did my father-in-law say?"
Liu Ying ignored it and jumped down as well, and soon the three of them started to pull up the plow together.
Liu Chang gritted his teeth and kept exerting force. The plow was slowly dragged. "Bang~~~", the plow let out a scream and was lifted out. Liu Chang gasped and said with a smile: "Okay.
!”
Liu Ying was also happy. He looked at his hands and said, "We have so much strength! We actually pulled it out!"
"Brother, I find that you look more and more like Ruyi!"
When Liu Chang returned to Jiaofang Hall happily, Wang Ling was kneeling in front of the Queen Mother.
It can be seen that Queen Lu was in a very bad mood at the moment.
She gritted her teeth. It was rare for Liu Chang to see anyone other than herself make her mother so angry. After all, if others came to provoke her mother, they could basically die of illness.
He suppressed his laughter and stood aside, looking at the royal tomb.
Wang Ling said seriously: "It is the fault of Marquis Jiancheng for allowing his heirs to do evil. The reason why Marquis Jiancheng dared to do this is because of the Queen Mother's love for him. This is the fault of the Queen Mother!"
"Hehehe."
Empress Lu sneered. This laughter was very scary.
Wang Ling was not afraid. He stood up, looked at Liu Chang not far away, and said: "The same is true for King Tang! At his age, King Tang should not continue to live in Jiaofang Hall! There should be another hall! Also!
, as a vassal king, the King of Tang should abide by the law, otherwise, he should be severely punished!"
Liu Chang, who was still watching the show, saw the fire burning on his body. He was furious and cursed: "Wang Ling, do you want to die?!"
"The king of the Tang Dynasty regarded Han law as nothing, acted arrogantly, and rode in the same carriage with the emperor. There was a suspicion of trespassing! Aren't you afraid of the emperor's questioning?"
